Briefly discuss the issues which led to the rise of ethnic insurgency in Sri Lanka in the 1980s. To what extent Indo-Sri Lanka accord helped to resolve them? (10 Marks/150 Words) Approach: Introduce briefly the issue which led to the rise of ethnic insurgency in Sri Lanka In body reasons which gave rise to the issue of ethnic insurgency. Elaborate on what extent the Indo-Sri Lanka accord helped to resolve them Conclude briefly with a balanced view. Answer: During the British period, about 10 lakh Tamil labours were taken to Sri Lanka to work on the plantation. For approximately 100 years Tamil labours worked for the prosperity of Sri Lanka. Tamils and Sinhalese are the two major ethnic groups In Sri Lanka. Sinhalese eternal conflict with Tamils for power had been gathering strength since before independence. There were various reasons that led to the gradual rise of Tamil militant nationalism: Tamil-dominated Northern Province had comparatively better facilities in terms of education and employment in the colonial period. Post-independence Sinhalese nationalism sought to curb the Tamil presence in education and civil administration. In 1948, immediately after independence, a controversial law was passed by the Ceylon Parliament called the Ceylon Citizenship Act, which deliberately discriminated against the Indian Tamil ethnic minority by making it virtually impossible for them to obtain citizenship in the country. Approximately over 700,000 Indian Tamils were made stateless. The passing of the infamous “Sinhalese Only Act” in 1956 was another attempt along the same lines. The act replaced English as the official language of Ceylon with Sinhalese. The Act failed to give official recognition to Tamil, which had not received official recognition before. The constitutional provisions in the 1972 Constitution favouring the Sinhalese language and Buddhist religion, along with their educational policies convinced many Tamils that they had been perceived as a marginal community. Quota System: The language-based quotas in university entrance examinations in the 1970s required Tamil-speaking students to earn significantly higher scores compared to Sinhalese students. As a result of open discrimination, in 1976 Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) was formed to fight for Tamil rights and in 1983 Civil war started. The bilateral relations between India and Sri Lanka deteriorated in the 1980s with a rising of the Tamil militant separatism in Sri Lanka. In 1987 with the objective of improving the ties, Indo-Sri Lankan Accord was signed between India and Sri Lanka. It proposed a political solution to Sri Lanka’s conflict by establishing a provincial council system and devolution of power for nine provinces in Sri Lanka. (This is popularly known as the Thirteenth Amendment (13A) to the Constitution of Sri Lanka). India also deployed Indian Peace Keeping Force in Sri Lanka intended to perform peacekeeping (It is known as Operation Pawan, which ultimately resulted in the assassination of PM Rajiv Gandhi). After two years of constant military engagement, the IPKF was withdrawn as it failed to defeat LTTE. Finally, in 2009, 25 years of violence ended when the Sri Lankan government seized the last area controlled by Tamil Tiger rebels. India at that point agreed to reconstruct the war-torn areas and started many rehabilitation programs. However, the pro-LTTE governments in Tamil Nadu influenced the decisions of the Central Government which posed a roadblock in humanitarian assistance in Sri Lanka. Also, the relationship started deteriorating when India voted against Sri Lanka in 2009, 2012 and 2013 at the US-sponsored UNHRC resolution to investigate alleged human rights violations by the state against the Tamil rebels. As per the 13th amendment, Sri Lanka was divided into nine provinces each governed by a council headed by an elected chief minister. The north and east were merged into one province called the North-East province. Also, Tamil was made an official language along with Sinhalese. The powers were divided into three lists viz. Provincial, Reserved and Concurrent. However, since all the provisions of the 13th amendment were not implemented, it is called 13-Minus. 13 Minus implies that Police, Land and Financial powers have not been devolved. The provinces have struggled to get adequate financial powers. Then in 2007, the North and East were demerged. This was followed by more centralized powers in the hands of the President, eroding whatsoever autonomy was with the provinces. India has always emphasised a meaningful devolution package, based on the 13th Amendment. India’s interest is not only cultural but also demographic as around 1 lakh Tamil refugees are living in India. Until a political reconciliation is achieved in Sri Lanka, the return of these refugees will not be possible.

As a result of open discrimination, in 1976 Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) was formed to fight for Tamil rights and in 1983 Civil war started. The bilateral relations between India and Sri Lanka deteriorated in the 1980s with a rising of the Tamil militant separatism in Sri Lanka. In 1987 with the objective of improving the ties, Indo-Sri Lankan Accord was signed between India and Sri Lanka. It proposed a political solution to Sri Lanka’s conflict by establishing a provincial council system and devolution of power for nine provinces in Sri Lanka. (This is popularly known as the Thirteenth Amendment (13A) to the Constitution of Sri Lanka). India also deployed Indian Peace Keeping Force in Sri Lanka intended to perform peacekeeping (It is known as Operation Pawan, which ultimately resulted in the assassination of PM Rajiv Gandhi). After two years of constant military engagement, the IPKF was withdrawn as it failed to defeat LTTE. Finally, in 2009, 25 years of violence ended when the Sri Lankan government seized the last area controlled by Tamil Tiger rebels. India at that point agreed to reconstruct the war-torn areas and started many rehabilitation programs. However, the pro-LTTE governments in Tamil Nadu influenced the decisions of the Central Government which posed a roadblock in humanitarian assistance in Sri Lanka. Also, the relationship started deteriorating when India voted against Sri Lanka in 2009, 2012 and 2013 at the US-sponsored UNHRC resolution to investigate alleged human rights violations by the state against the Tamil rebels. As per the 13th amendment, Sri Lanka was divided into nine provinces each governed by a council headed by an elected chief minister. The north and east were merged into one province called the North-East province. Also, Tamil was made an official language along with Sinhalese. The powers were divided into three lists viz. Provincial, Reserved and Concurrent. However, since all the provisions of the 13th amendment were not implemented, it is called 13-Minus. 13 Minus implies that Police, Land and Financial powers have not been devolved. The provinces have struggled to get adequate financial powers. Then in 2007, the North and East were demerged. This was followed by more centralized powers in the hands of the President, eroding whatsoever autonomy was with the provinces. India has always emphasised a meaningful devolution package, based on the 13th Amendment. India’s interest is not only cultural but also demographic as around 1 lakh Tamil refugees are living in India. Until a political reconciliation is achieved in Sri Lanka, the return of these refugees will not be possible.

Briefly discuss the issues which led to the rise of ethnic insurgency in Sri Lanka in the 1980s. To what extent Indo-Sri Lanka accord helped to resolve them? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Introduce briefly the issue which led to the rise of ethnic insurgency in Sri Lanka In body reasons which gave rise to the issue of ethnic insurgency. Elaborate on what extent the Indo-Sri Lanka accord helped to resolve them Conclude briefly with a balanced view. Answer: During the British period, about 10 lakh Tamil labours were taken to Sri Lanka to work on the plantation. For approximately 100 years Tamil labours worked for the prosperity of Sri Lanka. Tamils and Sinhalese are the two major ethnic groups In Sri Lanka. Sinhalese eternal conflict with Tamils for power had been gathering strength since before independence. There were various reasons that led to the gradual rise of Tamil militant nationalism: Tamil-dominated Northern Province had comparatively better facilities in terms of education and employment in the colonial period. Post-independence Sinhalese nationalism sought to curb the Tamil presence in education and civil administration. In 1948, immediately after independence, a controversial law was passed by the Ceylon Parliament called the Ceylon Citizenship Act, which deliberately discriminated against the Indian Tamil ethnic minority by making it virtually impossible for them to obtain citizenship in the country. Approximately over 700,000 Indian Tamils were made stateless. The passing of the infamous “Sinhalese Only Act” in 1956 was another attempt along the same lines. The act replaced English as the official language of Ceylon with Sinhalese. The Act failed to give official recognition to Tamil, which had not received official recognition before. The constitutional provisions in the 1972 Constitution favouring the Sinhalese language and Buddhist religion, along with their educational policies convinced many Tamils that they had been perceived as a marginal community. Quota System: The language-based quotas in university entrance examinations in the 1970s required Tamil-speaking students to earn significantly higher scores compared to Sinhalese students.

Briefly discuss to what extent Bhoodan and Gramdan movement was a success in the post-independence period? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach : Introduce briefly about Bhoodan and Gramdan movement In body discuss the success in the post-independence period and challenges Conclude briefly with the impact of the movement. Answer : The Bhoodan and Gramdan Movements Vinoba Bhave, a disciple of Mahatma Gandhi, noticed the problems faced by the landless Harijans in Pochampalli, Telangana. He led the movements in an attempt to bring about a “non-violent revolution” in India’s land reforms programme. The movements were about urging the landed classes to voluntarily surrender a part of their land to the landless giving it the name- Bhoodan Movement. It began in 1951. In response to the appeal by Vinoba Bhave, some landowning classes agreed to the voluntary donation of some part of the land. The Central and State governments had provided the necessary assistance to Vinoba Bhave. Later, the Bhoodan gave way to the Gramdan movement which began in 1952. The objective of the Gramdan movement was to persuade landowners and leaseholders in each village to renounce their land rights and all the lands would become the property of a village association for an egalitarian redistribution and joint cultivation. Under this movement, a village was declared as Gramdan when at least 75% of its residents with 51% of the land signified their approval in writing for Gramdan. The first village to come under Gramdan was Magrath, Haripur, Uttar Pradesh. Successes of the Movement: The movement was the first post-independence movement that sought to bring social transformation through a movement and not through government legislation. It created a moral ambience that put pressure on the big landlords. It also stimulated the political activity among the peasants and landless, providing a fertile ground for political propaganda to organise peasants. Challenges : The land donated was mostly those which were unfertile or under litigation as a result although large areas of land were collected little was distributed among the landless. Gramdan movement was started in villages where class differentiation had not emerged, there was little difference in landholdings ownership, mainly in tribal areas. But it was not successful in areas where there was a disparity in landholdings. Further, the movement failed to realize its revolutionary potential. Conclusion The movements received and resulted in widespread political patronage. The movements reached their peak around 1969. Several state governments passed laws aimed at Gramdan and Bhoodan. But after 1969 Gramdan and Bhoodan lost their importance due to the shift from being a purely voluntary movement to a government-supported programme. In 1967, after the withdrawal of Vinoba Bhave from the movement, it lost its mass base.

On the basis of nature, there are two types of Parliamentary Committees – Standing Committees and Ad-hoc Committees. A significant feature of the Indian legislative process is the appointment of Parliamentary committees for various legislative purposes.

Way Forward The following measures will strengthen it further and aid it in effectively checking the wrongdoings on the part of the Executive- The time limit should be fixed for government departments to submit Action Taken Report. Sufficient technical assistance should be provided to them through Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha Secretariats. Testimony of witnesses should be made public either by telecasting it or allowing the Press or by making the transcript of testimony public. Minutes of the meetings should be made public.

Discuss how will you use "persuasion" for successful family planning for the target group. (150 words/ 10 marks)
|
Approach: Introduction- Persuasion can be defined. Main body- how persuasion for successful family planning. Conclusion- A suitable conclusion can be given. Answer: Persuasion is a process aimed at changing a person"s or a group’s attitude or behavior toward some event, idea, object, or other people. For these purposes, modes of persuasion involving ethical strategies or rhetorical appeals can be used. The techniques which can be used for persuasion- Message discrepancy should be avoided. The persuasion should be done by someone who has high authority and position. The source should be credible. The message should be presented in a culturally congruent manner. eg- Sarpanch can be roped in Panchayats. Mild fear appeal- The fear appeal generally happens to be effective, if they provide specific recommendations about how the change in attitude or behavior will prevent the negative consequences, described in fear-provoking messages. eg- the negative consequences of the high population can be told to the group. The target group should not feel that their beliefs are being insulted. Else, it would be hard to persuade . eg- In the series Panchayat, the local people took the population reduction slogan offensive. Channel is the medium through which information is presented and hence it must be compatible, not only with the message delivered but also the characteristic of the audience to whom the message is delivered. Eg- street plays, charismatic personality, etc. The best results are obtained when the persuasive message has both factual and emotional appeal. eg- more children may lead to conflict in resources. To increase the effectiveness of the persuasive appeal, a pleasant form of distraction is required. Eg- food, humor, etc. In street plays, food can be provided to the people. As India is going to overtake China"s population by 2024, as per UNFPA, the above-mentioned techniques can be used to persuade the people.

According to Aristotle for persuasion, not only ethos and logos but pathos is equally important. Comment? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Briefly define persuasion in the introduction. Then demonstrate the meaning and significance of the three modes of persuasion i.e. ethos, logos and pathos. Also, briefly indicate ways to develop these methods. Answer: Persuasion is a process aimed at changing a person"s or a group’s attitude or behaviour toward some event, idea, object, or other people. For these purposes, modes of persuasion involving ethical strategies or rhetorical appeals can be used. Aristotle describes these as ethos, pathos, and logos. According to Aristotle, for persuasion, not only Ethos (credibility of the speaker) and Logos (logical argument) but Pathos (emotional connection to the audience) is equally important. Ethos Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character, authority or credibility of the persuader If the presenter knows or assumes that the members of the audience share certain moral values, the presenter then can appeal to those values to support their idea. It can be done in multiple ways by: Being a notable figure in the field in question, such as a college professor or an executive of a company whose business is related to the subject of the presentation. Demonstrating mastery over the specialized vocabulary of the field. Being introduced by or producing bona fides from other established authorities. Logos - It simply means a logical appeal and the term logic is derived from it. To use logos would be to cite facts and statistics. Having a logos appeal also enhances ethos because information makes the speaker look knowledgeable and prepared for his or her audience. Logos can be developed by: Using advanced, theoretical or abstract language citing facts and constructing logical arguments. using historical and literal analogies Pathos - Pathos is an appeal to emotion and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by creating an emotional response. It’s important to see the emotional side of the issue if one is trying to persuade someone. Speakers use pathos to invoke sympathy from an audience. Pathos is most effective when the author or speaker demonstrates agreement with an underlying value of the reader or listener. Pathos can be developed by: Using meaningful language Emotional tone Emotion evoking examples Making illustrations funny because attention spans are short, etc Thus, the most important aspect of pathos is the emotional intelligence of the speaker and to persuade an audience, proper Ethos, Logos and Pathos is necessary.

For these purposes, modes of persuasion involving ethical strategies or rhetorical appeals can be used. Aristotle describes these as ethos, pathos, and logos. According to Aristotle, for persuasion, not only Ethos (credibility of the speaker) and Logos (logical argument) but Pathos (emotional connection to the audience) is equally important. Ethos Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character, authority or credibility of the persuader If the presenter knows or assumes that the members of the audience share certain moral values, the presenter then can appeal to those values to support their idea. It can be done in multiple ways by: Being a notable figure in the field in question, such as a college professor or an executive of a company whose business is related to the subject of the presentation. Demonstrating mastery over the specialized vocabulary of the field. Being introduced by or producing bona fides from other established authorities. Logos - It simply means a logical appeal and the term logic is derived from it. To use logos would be to cite facts and statistics. Having a logos appeal also enhances ethos because information makes the speaker look knowledgeable and prepared for his or her audience. Logos can be developed by: Using advanced, theoretical or abstract language citing facts and constructing logical arguments. using historical and literal analogies Pathos - Pathos is an appeal to emotion and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by creating an emotional response. It’s important to see the emotional side of the issue if one is trying to persuade someone. Speakers use pathos to invoke sympathy from an audience. Pathos is most effective when the author or speaker demonstrates agreement with an underlying value of the reader or listener. Pathos can be developed by: Using meaningful language Emotional tone Emotion evoking examples Making illustrations funny because attention spans are short, etc Thus, the most important aspect of pathos is the emotional intelligence of the speaker and to persuade an audience, proper Ethos, Logos and Pathos is necessary.

Compared to the Eary Vedic Period, discuss the political, economic, societal, and religious changes that took place in the Later Vedic Period. (10 marks /150 words)
|
Approach: Introduction: Mention the later Vedic period with its age and background. Body : Highlight the political, economic, societal, and religious changes that took place in the later Vedic period over the early verdict period. Conclusion: Conclude your answer based on the above points, Answer: Around 1000 BC, with the discovery of iron, many changes happened in Vedic society. It created very sharp tools and weapons with iron which facilitated clearing the dense forests of upper and middle Gangetic plains which further causes penetration towards Eastern India and Central India. These changes led to the evolution of a new society named as Later Vedic Society and the time period was named as Later Vedic Period. These changes in the Later Vedic Period (LVP) can be summarised under four different categories as follows: 1. Political changes during the LVP 2. Economic changes during the LVP 3. Societal changes during the LVP 4. Religious changes during the LVP Political changes during the LVP The position of "Rajan" became much more important at this point in time. He was assisted by the priestly class and nobles. His most important function was to organize battles to secure large tracts of land known as "Rashtra" The assemblies of the Early Vedic Period like Sabha and Samiti lost their former relevance . The assembly of the Vidhata disappeared completely The priestly class came up with the idea of sacrifices rituals to confer supreme power to the Rajan which are as follows: Rajsuiya : It was a consecration ceremony in which Rajan was appointed to the throne with the blessings of the priestly class. Vajpeya: It was a sports event in which a chariot race was organized. After the conclusion of the ceremony, a free feast was served to the participants. Ashwamedha Yajna: Ashwamedha was the most important ritual aimed at extending the territory of the kingdom. In this ceremony, a very young hoarse was chosen to carry the flag of the Ashwamedha kingdom. A small incision was made on the body of the hoarse by chief queen "Mahishi" and then the hoarse was let loose to venture into the other"s territory. If the horse was captured by another king then he needed to fight with the Ashwamedha king. If he does"t capture the horse, it meant that he has accepted the supremacy of Ashwamedha king. Economic changes during the LVP Unlike cattle in the Early Vedic period, land became the most important economic wealth during LVP. The Land was important from the perspective of agriculture . Apart from Yav (Barley) and Godhuma (wheat), Vrihi (rice) emerged as one of the most imp. crops. There was no formal system of taxation at this time and people voluntarily contributed to the Rajan in the form of Bagh or Bali. Societal changes during the LVP As mentioned in the 10th mandala of Rig Veda, the society got divided into four Varnas on the basis of birth . It is mentioned under Purushashukta"s theory which is as follows: 1) Brahman: They emerged from the mouth of primaeval man (Aadi Brahma); 2) Ksatriya: They emerged from the shoulders and chest of primaeval man.; 3) Vaishya: They emerged from the thigh of the primaeval man.; 4) Shudra: They emerged from the feet of the primaeval man. The Women did "t enjoy any political rights during LVP. They were no more members of Sabha and Vidhata was not existing. Educational discourses were still open to women. A great example of this was Vidhishi, Gargi, and her debates with Rishi Yajhyavalkya. There are no great instances of child marriage. Love marriage or Gandharva Vivah were no more allowed. Widow remarriage was allowed under Niyog Vivah. The concept of Gotra was further consolidated at this time , which is the lineage from common ancestors. The Priestly class advised exogamy of gotra in matters of matrimonial alliances. The priestly class consolidated the concepts of 16 samskaras e,g 1) Garbhadhan Samskar, Namkaran Samskar, Annaprashan Samskar. Upanayana Samskar The Ashrama Vyavastha/ System also started to emerge at this time. The first three stages of Ashrama were formally established at this time 1) Brahmacharya: (Maintaining Celibacy) 2) Grihastha: (religious duties and family responsibilities) 3) Vanaprastha: (partial retirement from the householder"s life to attain divine wisdom) Religious changes during the LVP The Early Vedic Period gods like Indra, Agri, Varun, etc., lost their former relevance. The " Prajapati" of Brahma (creator of the universe) emerged as the most important divinity . The concept of Rudra and Vishnu was also consolidated at this time (LVP) The objective of the worship was to get material gain. But in the rear end/ last of LVP, spiritual tendencies started to emerge. The progressive sections of society started to talk about reforms in Vedic practices. They composed progressive ideas in the texts known as "Upanishads" Thus, changes and evolution with time were part of every society. Changes, innovations, evolutions, and development during the later Vedic age led to the rising of second urbanization in ancient India known as the period of Mahajanapadas.

The penetration of self-help groups (SHGs) in rural areas in promoting participation in development programmes is facing socio-cultural hurdles. Examine? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach Introduce briefly about the self-help groups (SHGs) In body mention how the SHGs in rural areas in promoting participation in development programmes Also mention how they are facing socio-cultural hurdles Conclude briefly Answer Self Help Groups are very important for implementing programmes at grass root level due to their ability to penetrate deep into society and promote community participation. The mushrooming of SHGs in the countryside is fast changing the development landscape. They are fast becoming a catalyst of inclusive development. But these SHGs face several challenges including socio-cultural ones. SHGs are facing various hurdles in terms of its implementing capacity due to various factors. Socio-cultural hurdles in development programmes Male domination:- Traditional role of women has been related to domestic work. Now, their participation in economic activities outside the home is being challenged by patriarchal values and gender discrimination. Lack of social mobility:- Division of society into castes has become a hurdle in the functioning of SHGs as teams. Lack of motivation from family members:- Family members generally do not allow women to be part of any activity outside the home. In many places, these women working outside is related, with lower social status The backlash from the dominant and affluent section of society:- SHGs generally bring about empowerment of people from underprivileged sections of society. So, they are facing backlash from the dominant and affluent section of society. Lack of cooperation:- Lack of cooperation among members due to suspicion and mistrust is another major concern. Taboo - Various superstitions exist in society and cultural practices that act as counterproductive against efforts to develop society. These practices act as largest hurdles and it needs lot of effort from government to eradicate them completely. Ex: Working women are not desired in the traditional society which makes their participation in SHGs difficult. Religious beliefs - There are various religious beliefs in society that can be called undesirable because the harm it can cause to efforts of change. These beliefs are unnecessary and they cannot serve anything good for society. Ex: Women are considered inferior to men and their freedom is restricted. Language - The authorities have to be well versed with the language of the region in order to better connect with people. Knowing the language will be advantageous to faster development and greater community participation through SHGs. Ex: SHGs working in tribal areas can succeed if they know the language of the community. Measures to reduce socio-cultural hurdles Community participation - In order to better understand customs and beliefs it is necessary that people from the community are taken into confidence. If they can be convinced, the implementation of programmes can be successful. Non-interference - Interference from higher authorities can be restricted to only necessary clearance and greater autonomy is provided for certain groups. Greater independence and less red tape can turn into a successful venture Training programmes and management skills, if provided can solve many of these problems. Thus, SHGs can be turned successful if social participation is given equal importance. Respect for culture and tradition is very necessary if success has to be achieved.

Disability is as social as it is physical. Discuss the statement in the context of Indian society? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: 1. Definition and issues in brief 2. How disability is a physical issue 3. How disability is a social issue as well 4. Way Forward Answer: Disability refers to the lack of ability to perform an activity which is considered normal for a human being; It has a negative connotation and is used in the context of developing countries as against differently-abled people. How disability is a physical issue:- Physical barriers are structural obstacles in natural or manmade environments that prevent or block mobility (moving around in the environment) or access Absence of a weight scale that accommodates wheelchairs or others who have difficulty stepping up. Railways, education institutes, and other infrastructures don’t provide special provisions for disabled people which restricts them for easy access to the services. Communication barriers are experienced by people who have disabilities that affect hearing, speaking, reading, writing, and or understanding, Disability as a social problem The differently-abled person is disabled not because he/she is physically or mentally impaired, but due to the inherent nature of society which stigmatizes and ostracize them. There is a cultural perception in the society that disability is retribution of past Karma for which there is no respite. Stereotyping: People sometimes stereotype those with disabilities, assuming their quality of life is poor or that they are unhealthy because of their impairments. Within society attitudes like Stigma, prejudice, and discrimination may come from people’s ideas related to disability There exist an attitude of mocking and sympathy where a disabled person is viewed as a victim who is often being ridiculed. Underreporting for differently-abled people in census further leads to the ostracization of them from govt. schemes People with mental disability face the most isolation as they are considered not fit to communicate in society as a result of social stigma. Apart from these, there are policy barriers too where individuals with disabilities are denied access to programs, services, benefits, or opportunities to participate as a result of physical barriers Because of policy and infrastructure lacuna, they have limited access to education, skills and job opportunity and political representation. It leads to poverty and unhygienic conditions. Govt. fails to provide infra and facility, because it is considered there retribution of and karma. Because of the lack of access to the infrastructure and services, people with some disability are not able to enjoy their political, economic and socio-cultural rights. Hence, they exist as a ghost Citizens. Way Forward:- Strong laws are required to serve as deterrence and promote e-learning ad mandatory compliance with the accessibility Under Right to Education, promote inclusive education without labelling To create special schools for the disabled people to taking care of their special needs Special disability courts for speedy disposal of cases The incentive to private employers and resource creation through Cess. Reservation can be extended to private jobs and Promote Entrepreneurship through hand holding Create an institute for professional caretakers following NSDA( National Skill Development Authority) guidelines

##Question:Disability is as social as it is physical. Discuss the statement in the context of Indian society? (10 Marks/150 Words)##Answer:Approach: 1. Definition and issues in brief 2. How disability is a physical issue 3. How disability is a social issue as well 4. Way Forward Answer: Disability refers to the lack of ability to perform an activity which is considered normal for a human being; It has a negative connotation and is used in the context of developing countries as against differently-abled people. How disability is a physical issue:- Physical barriers are structural obstacles in natural or manmade environments that prevent or block mobility (moving around in the environment) or access Absence of a weight scale that accommodates wheelchairs or others who have difficulty stepping up. Railways, education institutes, and other infrastructures don’t provide special provisions for disabled people which restricts them for easy access to the services. Communication barriers are experienced by people who have disabilities that affect hearing, speaking, reading, writing, and or understanding, Disability as a social problem The differently-abled person is disabled not because he/she is physically or mentally impaired, but due to the inherent nature of society which stigmatizes and ostracize them. There is a cultural perception in the society that disability is retribution of past Karma for which there is no respite. Stereotyping: People sometimes stereotype those with disabilities, assuming their quality of life is poor or that they are unhealthy because of their impairments. Within society attitudes like Stigma, prejudice, and discrimination may come from people’s ideas related to disability There exist an attitude of mocking and sympathy where a disabled person is viewed as a victim who is often being ridiculed. Underreporting for differently-abled people in census further leads to the ostracization of them from govt. schemes People with mental disability face the most isolation as they are considered not fit to communicate in society as a result of social stigma. Apart from these, there are policy barriers too where individuals with disabilities are denied access to programs, services, benefits, or opportunities to participate as a result of physical barriers Because of policy and infrastructure lacuna, they have limited access to education, skills and job opportunity and political representation. It leads to poverty and unhygienic conditions. Govt. fails to provide infra and facility, because it is considered there retribution of and karma. Because of the lack of access to the infrastructure and services, people with some disability are not able to enjoy their political, economic and socio-cultural rights. Hence, they exist as a ghost Citizens. Way Forward:- Strong laws are required to serve as deterrence and promote e-learning ad mandatory compliance with the accessibility Under Right to Education, promote inclusive education without labelling To create special schools for the disabled people to taking care of their special needs Special disability courts for speedy disposal of cases The incentive to private employers and resource creation through Cess.

What do you mean by Money Bill and how does it differ from Financial Bills? (10 Marks/150 words)
|
Approach : Introduce in brief about money bills and related provisions In body explain how money bills differ from financial bills Conclude briefly with significance Answer : Money Bill is defined in Article 110 of the Indian Constitution. Money bills are concerned with financial matters like taxation, public expenditure, etc.In the Constitution, Article 110 deals with Money Bill in India. There are few provisions for a bill to be deemed as a money bill. The provisions that make a bill a money bill in India are as follows: The imposition, abolition, remission, alteration or regulation of any tax The regulation of the borrowing of money by the Union government The custody of the Consolidated Fund of India or the contingency fund of India, the payment of money into or the withdrawal of money from any such fund The appropriation of money out of the Consolidated Fund of India Declaration of any expenditure charged on the Consolidated Fund of India or increasing the amount of any such expenditure The receipt of money on account of the Consolidated Fund of India or the public account of India or the custody or issue of such money, or the audit of the accounts of the Union or of a state Any matter incidental to any of the matters specified above Article 110 of the Indian Constitution also gives provisions following which a bill cannot be deemed as a money bill. These includes: Imposition of fines or other pecuniary penalties Demand or payment of fees for licenses or fees for services rendered Imposition, abolition, remission, alteration or regulation of any tax by any local authority or body for local purposes Financial Bills are dealt with under Articles 117. Though Money Bill is a species of financial bill, however, not all financial bills are money bills. These bills are categorized as Financial Bills (I) and (II). A Money Bill is certified by the Speaker as such, only those Financial Bills that carry the Speaker’s certification are Money Bills. Financial Bills that are not certified by the Speaker are of two kinds: Bills that contain any of the matters specified in Article 110, but do not contain only those matters [Article 117 (1)]; and ordinary Bills that contain provisions involving expenditure from the Consolidated Fund [Article 117 (3)]. Financial Bills (I): It is defined as a bill that contains matters not only related to Article 110 (Money Bill) but also other matters of finances. Its similarity with the money bill: It is introduced only in Lok Sabha similar to Money Bill. It is introduced only on the recommendation of President Its difference with money bill: It can be either rejected or amended by the Rajya Sabha which is not the case with money bill. There is a provision of joint sitting summoned by the President in case of deadlock. President can give his assent, withhold the bill or can even return the bill for reconsideration Financial Bills (II): It is defined as a bill that solely deals with provisions involving expenditure from the Consolidated Fund of India and does not include any matter of money bill (Article 110.) It is treated as an ordinary bill in all respects unlike Financial Bill (I) Special Feature: It cannot be passed by either house of the Parliament unless the President has recommended them for consideration of the bill It can be either rejected or amended by either House of Parliament. There is a provision of joint sitting summoned by the President in case of deadlock President can give his assent, withhold the bill or can even return the bill for reconsideration The money bill is significant for Indian Polity and governance as many important issues like Aadhar Bill, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Bill are also related to it. These bills are important to understand as they form an important stage to know how a bill is passed in the Indian Parliament.

##Question:What do you mean by Money Bills and how do they differ from Financial Bills? (10Marks/150 words)##Answer:Approach : Introduce in brief about money bills and related provisions In body explain how money bills differ from financial bills Conclude briefly with significance Answer : Money Bill is defined in Article 110 of the Indian Constitution. Money bills are concerned with financial matters like taxation, public expenditure, etc. In the Constitution, Article 110 deals with Money Bill in India. There are few provisions for a bill to be deemed as a money bill. The provisions that make a bill a money bill in India are as follows: The imposition, abolition, remission, alteration or regulation of any tax The regulation of the borrowing of money by the Union government The custody of the Consolidated Fund of India or the contingency fund of India, the payment of money into or the withdrawal of money from any such fund The appropriation of money out of the Consolidated Fund of India Declaration of any expenditure charged on the Consolidated Fund of India or increasing the amount of any such expenditure The receipt of money on account of the Consolidated Fund of India or the public account of India or the custody or issue of such money, or the audit of the accounts of the Union or of a state Any matter incidental to any of the matters specified above Article 110 of the Indian Constitution also gives provisions following which a bill cannot be deemed as a money bill. These includes: Imposition of fines or other pecuniary penalties Demand or payment of fees for licenses or fees for services rendered Imposition, abolition, remission, alteration or regulation of any tax by any local authority or body for local purposes Financial Bills are dealt with under Articles 117. Though Money Bill is a species of financial bill, however, not all financial bills are money bills. These bills are categorized as Financial Bills (I) and (II). A Money Bill is certified by the Speaker as such, only those Financial Bills that carry the Speaker’s certification are Money Bills. Financial Bills that are not certified by the Speaker are of two kinds: Bills that contain any of the matters specified in Article 110, but do not contain only those matters [Article 117 (1)]; and ordinary Bills that contain provisions involving expenditure from the Consolidated Fund [Article 117 (3)]. Financial Bills (I): It is defined as a bill that contains matters not only related to Article 110 (Money Bill) but also other matters of finances. Its similarity with the money bill: It is introduced only in Lok Sabha similar to Money Bill. It is introduced only on the recommendation of President Its difference with money bill: It can be either rejected or amended by the Rajya Sabha which is not the case with money bill. There is a provision of joint sitting summoned by the President in case of deadlock. President can give his assent, withhold the bill or can even return the bill for reconsideration Financial Bills (II): It is defined as a bill that solely deals with provisions involving expenditure from the Consolidated Fund of India and does not include any matter of money bill (Article 110.) It is treated as an ordinary bill in all respects unlike Financial Bill (I) Special Feature: It cannot be passed by either house of the Parliament unless the President has recommended them for consideration of the bill It can be either rejected or amended by either House of Parliament. There is a provision of joint sitting summoned by the President in case of deadlock President can give his assent, withhold the bill or can even return the bill for reconsideration The money bill is significant for Indian Polity and governance as many important issues like Aadhar Bill, Insolvency and Bankruptcy Bill are also related to it.

Explain "poverty gap". How Squared poverty gap is better measure of poverty than poverty gap.(150 words/10 marks)
|
Approach: Introduction: Define poverty line Main body: explain how the poverty line measure the poverty further, the next part mentions the Squared poverty gap; its meaning, and how its a better measure than the poverty line Finally, concluded with briefly mentioning how the two has their own flaws and advantages Answer: Poverty Gap The poverty gap measures the extent to which individuals fall below the poverty line (the poverty gaps) as a proportion of the poverty line. The sum of these poverty gaps gives the minimum cost of eliminating poverty if transfers were perfectly targeted. The measure does not reflect changes in inequality among the poor. That is, It is a measure of the depth of poverty. The depth signifies how deep below the poverty line an average person is, that is it measures how far from the poverty line people below the poverty line are and what is the average distance one would have to cover in order to cross over the poverty line. The poverty gap measures the depth of poverty however it just measures the average distance that a person BPL had to traverse to escape poverty, It didn’t differentiate between the efforts required by people who are far below the poverty line and those who are near to poverty line Squared poverty gap(SPG): So, to overcome the above lacunas Squared poverty gap is the answer. The Squared Poverty Gap measures the severity of poverty for each area. By squaring the poverty gap for each household/individual, this measure gives greater weight to those that fall far below the poverty line than those that are closer to it. so, one way of giving more weightage to the efforts of people who are far below the poverty line is to take the average of the squares of distance rather than simply the average of the distance by taking squared distances those who are further away from their deprivation will be captured to a greater extent. Find the average of squared distances and then takes the squared roots to find the squared poverty gap SPG would be closer to people who are away from the poverty line as compared to the poverty gap which would be closer to the poverty line. To conclude, we can say that the poverty gap measure has the virtue that it does not imply that there is a discontinuity (“jump”) at the poverty line, the squared poverty gap measure lacks intuitive appeal, and because it is not easy to interpret it is not used very widely as well. So both have their own advantages and flaws.

What do you mean by Emotional Intelligence? Briefly mention the different components of Emotional Intelligence? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
APPROACH INTRODUCTION - Definition of the term emotional intelligence THE COMPONENTS OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE THE WAYS AND MEANS TO DEVELOP EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE CONCLUSION [NOTE: An alternate structure, of discussing ‘the ways and means to develop EI’ together with ‘the components’ part simultaneously can also be followed, as the two are directly related] Answer: The term emotional intelligence was given by Wayne Paynes. The concept was formulated by Salovey and then finally popularised by Daniel Goleman. The scholarly definition of emotional intelligence (EI) is that it is the ability of the individual to perceive common emotions and assimilate these emotions in thought, understand and reason with emotions and regulate emotions in oneself and the others (Mayers and Salorey) THE COMPONENTS OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE As per Daniel Goleman, the following are the perspectives of EI: 1) SELF AWARENESS:-It means being aware of one’s own strengths and weaknesses. According to Aristotle, self-awareness is the beginning of all wisdom. 2) SELF MOTIVATION: A passion to work for reason that go beyond money or status; a propensity to pursue goals. 3) SELF REGULATION:-It means not being a prisoner of one’s own feelings 4) EMPATHY:-It means the ability to be able to understand the perspective of others 5) SOCIAL SKILLS:-These refer to those skills which help one to handle their relationships effectively. THE WAYS AND MEANS TO DEVELOP EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE For developing emotional intelligence one must reason with emotions and use emotions in reasoning (A)REASON WITH EMOTIONS We must understand two situations here: (i) Impending Threat Here one assumes that there is a threat. However, there might not actually be one. It is natural to have anxiety here. (Anxiety, thus, is the natural emotion here). (ii) Actual Threat Here the threat is real. For example, a lion might be standing in front of you. Here, fear is the natural emotion. There is no harm in having emotions. However, it must be in congruence with the situation at hand. For example, if anxiety goes out of control, then it implies that one is not being emotionally intelligent. (B)USE OF EMOTIONS IN REASONING Take the case of administration, use of emotions is very important in any reasoning here. In fact this is true for any work that involves a human interface. The Ways to inculcate each component of EI are: 1) REALISTIC GOAL SETTING Awareness of strengths and weaknesses implies realistic goal setting. This leads to the frequent achievement of goals, which further leads to positive goal discrepancy. (Positive goal discrepancy means that every accelerated goal will be achieved by the person. This automatically leads to self- motivation. 2) CONSCIOUSLY REGULATING ONE’S EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS One should not be the prisoner of one’s own feelings. If someone is self –regulated, it will automatically create a climate of trust and fairness. This, in turn, fosters team spirit and facilitates a collaborative approach. For example, when someone is self-regulated, with respect to their emotions, they will take decisions on the basis of merit rather than on the basis of emotions or obliging towards someone who has favoured them for years through their times of thick and thin. 3) INCULCATE EXPERIENCE AND SYMPATHY The both will enable one to develop empathy regarding the perspective and suffering of others. It results in the display of unconditional positive regard and the non-judgemental acceptance of others. This helps in reflecting and recognizing the feelings of others. 4) CONSCIOUS DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL SKILLS Tolerance, effective listening, patience, sense of humour, self-confidence, tactfulness, social memory are the social skills which one must develop in order to strengthen their emotional intelligence. For example, an administrator should remember the important dates regarding the historical events that took place in the village for which he is responsible. This will enable him to emotionally bond with the people and win their trust. They will feel that they and their culture are important to the administrator. As per Daniel Goleman, 80% EQ and 20% IQ (Intelligence Quotient) determines the success of any organisation. Therefore, developing and inculcating emotional intelligence is very important both is personal and professional life.

However, there might not actually be one. It is natural to have anxiety here. (Anxiety, thus, is the natural emotion here). (ii) Actual Threat Here the threat is real. For example, a lion might be standing in front of you. Here, fear is the natural emotion. There is no harm in having emotions. However, it must be in congruence with the situation at hand. For example, if anxiety goes out of control, then it implies that one is not being emotionally intelligent. (B)USE OF EMOTIONS IN REASONING Take the case of administration, use of emotions is very important in any reasoning here. In fact this is true for any work that involves a human interface. The Ways to inculcate each component of EI are: 1) REALISTIC GOAL SETTING Awareness of strengths and weaknesses implies realistic goal setting. This leads to the frequent achievement of goals, which further leads to positive goal discrepancy. (Positive goal discrepancy means that every accelerated goal will be achieved by the person. This automatically leads to self- motivation. 2) CONSCIOUSLY REGULATING ONE’S EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS One should not be the prisoner of one’s own feelings. If someone is self –regulated, it will automatically create a climate of trust and fairness. This, in turn, fosters team spirit and facilitates a collaborative approach. For example, when someone is self-regulated, with respect to their emotions, they will take decisions on the basis of merit rather than on the basis of emotions or obliging towards someone who has favoured them for years through their times of thick and thin. 3) INCULCATE EXPERIENCE AND SYMPATHY The both will enable one to develop empathy regarding the perspective and suffering of others. It results in the display of unconditional positive regard and the non-judgemental acceptance of others. This helps in reflecting and recognizing the feelings of others. 4) CONSCIOUS DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL SKILLS Tolerance, effective listening, patience, sense of humour, self-confidence, tactfulness, social memory are the social skills which one must develop in order to strengthen their emotional intelligence. For example, an administrator should remember the important dates regarding the historical events that took place in the village for which he is responsible. This will enable him to emotionally bond with the people and win their trust. They will feel that they and their culture are important to the administrator. As per Daniel Goleman, 80% EQ and 20% IQ (Intelligence Quotient) determines the success of any organisation. Therefore, developing and inculcating emotional intelligence is very important both is personal and professional life.

It results in the display of unconditional positive regard and the non-judgemental acceptance of others. This helps in reflecting and recognizing the feelings of others. 4) CONSCIOUS DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL SKILLS Tolerance, effective listening, patience, sense of humour, self-confidence, tactfulness, social memory are the social skills which one must develop in order to strengthen their emotional intelligence. For example, an administrator should remember the important dates regarding the historical events that took place in the village for which he is responsible. This will enable him to emotionally bond with the people and win their trust. They will feel that they and their culture are important to the administrator. As per Daniel Goleman, 80% EQ and 20% IQ (Intelligence Quotient) determines the success of any organisation. Therefore, developing and inculcating emotional intelligence is very important both is personal and professional life.

##Question:What do you mean by Emotional Intelligence? Briefly mention the different components of Emotional Intelligence? (10 Marks/150 Words)##Answer:APPROACH INTRODUCTION - Definition of the term emotional intelligence THE COMPONENTS OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE THE WAYS AND MEANS TO DEVELOP EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE CONCLUSION [NOTE: An alternate structure, of discussing ‘the ways and means to develop EI’ together with ‘the components’ part simultaneously can also be followed, as the two are directly related] Answer: The term emotional intelligence was given by Wayne Paynes. The concept was formulated by Salovey and then finally popularised by Daniel Goleman. The scholarly definition of emotional intelligence (EI) is that it is the ability of the individual to perceive common emotions and assimilate these emotions in thought, understand and reason with emotions and regulate emotions in oneself and the others (Mayers and Salorey) THE COMPONENTS OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE As per Daniel Goleman, the following are the perspectives of EI: 1) SELF AWARENESS:-It means being aware of one’s own strengths and weaknesses. According to Aristotle, self-awareness is the beginning of all wisdom. 2) SELF MOTIVATION: A passion to work for reason that go beyond money or status; a propensity to pursue goals. 3) SELF REGULATION:-It means not being a prisoner of one’s own feelings 4) EMPATHY:-It means the ability to be able to understand the perspective of others 5) SOCIAL SKILLS:-These refer to those skills which help one to handle their relationships effectively. THE WAYS AND MEANS TO DEVELOP EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE For developing emotional intelligence one must reason with emotions and use emotions in reasoning (A)REASON WITH EMOTIONS We must understand two situations here: (i) Impending Threat Here one assumes that there is a threat. However, there might not actually be one. It is natural to have anxiety here. (Anxiety, thus, is the natural emotion here). (ii) Actual Threat Here the threat is real. For example, a lion might be standing in front of you. Here, fear is the natural emotion. There is no harm in having emotions. However, it must be in congruence with the situation at hand. For example, if anxiety goes out of control, then it implies that one is not being emotionally intelligent. (B)USE OF EMOTIONS IN REASONING Take the case of administration, use of emotions is very important in any reasoning here. In fact this is true for any work that involves a human interface. The Ways to inculcate each component of EI are: 1) REALISTIC GOAL SETTING Awareness of strengths and weaknesses implies realistic goal setting. This leads to the frequent achievement of goals, which further leads to positive goal discrepancy. (Positive goal discrepancy means that every accelerated goal will be achieved by the person. This automatically leads to self- motivation. 2) CONSCIOUSLY REGULATING ONE’S EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS One should not be the prisoner of one’s own feelings. If someone is self –regulated, it will automatically create a climate of trust and fairness. This, in turn, fosters team spirit and facilitates a collaborative approach. For example, when someone is self-regulated, with respect to their emotions, they will take decisions on the basis of merit rather than on the basis of emotions or obliging towards someone who has favoured them for years through their times of thick and thin. 3) INCULCATE EXPERIENCE AND SYMPATHY The both will enable one to develop empathy regarding the perspective and suffering of others.

What are the various positive and negative impacts of increasing inflation in the economy? (150 words/10 marks)
|
Approach- 1. Give the definition of Inflation in the introduction. 2. Briefly discuss the negative impacts of inflation. 3. List the positive impacts of inflation. 4. Conclude with highlighting the role of the Government and Reserve Bank. Answer- Inflation refers to a sustained rise in the general price level in the economy and a fall in the purchasing power of money over a period of time. In simple words, inflation refers to the rise in the average price level of most goods and services in an economy. Negative Impact of inflation- 1. Loss to creditors- Inflation erodes the purchasing power of a currency. Creditors get back the same amount of money but they receive less in real terms. In order to shield themselves from a potential loss in value, lenders may charge an inflation-linked interest rate. Example= Inflation-Indexed Bond 2. Creates unequal income redistribution- One risk of higher inflation is that it has a regressive effect on lower-income families and older people in society. For example- the pensions received by the pensioners, as their pension amount may never increase and higher prices will affect adversely. 3. Fiscal drag- It is a phenomenon frequently seen in high inflation economies with progressive taxation. Workers are pushed into higher tax brackets, they end up paying more taxes and usually, their real incomes may actually fall. 4. Anticipated inflation and inflation spiral- Higher anticipation of inflation would cause people to behave in a manner so that they can shield themselves from its effects. For example- higher inflation expectation leads the worker to demand higher wages. This increases the cost of production and hence causes further inflation. 5. Impacts exports- A relatively higher inflation in a country makes it"s export uncompetitive because of the cost of factors of production increases. Due to higher inflation currency exchange rate depreciates, the export may become competitive but it will also result in increased import bill 6. Discourage savings- Inflation deteriorates the value of people"s savings. Financial assets like savings bank accounts usually have lower returns than the rate of inflation in times of high inflation. During such times people divert their savings from financial assets to physical assets such as real estate and gold. 7. Creates distortions in production patterns- Because of inflation, capital resources get diverted from long-term to short-term uses, and production shifts from essential to non-essential goods in the economy. 8. Breeds corruption- Inflation mars incentive for hard and honest work since a common man cannot meet rising expenses with a constant income. it also encourages practices such as black marketeering, hoarding, etc. Benefits of Inflation- 1. The incentive to producer- A sustained rise in prices that do not differ buying decisions of consumers increases the profitability of producers as they would be able to sell consistently at somewhat higher prices. Thus a small rate of inflation is considered as a necessity for an economy to grow to merely in nominal terms(because of high prices) but also in real terms because of incentives to producers. 2. Effect on unemployment- A sustained inflation gives incentives to produce more. More production leads to less unemployment. Phillips curve- as originally prepared shows the relationship between wages and unemployment it was modified in the 1960s to show the relationship between inflation and unemployment. In the short-run inflation and unemployment are inversely related. 3. Benefits to Borrowers- During inflation, the purchasing power of money decreases. Therefore, if the borrower is paying a rate of interest that is less than the inflation rate, then he gains in the process. This is because the real value of the money that the borrower returns is actually less than that of the money borrowed. The government has institutionalized a commitment to low inflation in the monetary policy framework agreement. The government fixes the inflation target of 4% (+/- 2%) in consultation with the Reserve Bank. However, for effective checks on inflation and growth stability, the fiscal policy must work in tandem with the monetary policy.

Write short notes on the following: (a) Aptitude and Attitude (b) Intelligent Quotient (IQ) and Emotional Quotient (EQ) (C) Nishkam Karm (15 marks/250 Words)
|
Approach - Students can write the answer by simply making the tabulation form or paragraph form with examples. Answer: Aptitude and attitude: Aptitude - Competence to perform certain kind/level of job ie specialised ability Attitude - Lasting evaluation/perception of different aspects of For example, Operation Suleimani in District Collector in Kozhikode, Kerela with respect to food crisis by collaborating with large food joints The attitude of DC is of compassion wrt the poor and aptitude is the ability of DC to resort to an innovative solution to food crisis problems, etc Aptitude is the potential of a person to do certain things due to the innate ability or accumulated knowledge and experience. Since it has more to do with intelligence, it can be acquired and enhanced through training and experience. Attitude is the way a person understands, perceives and responds to certain situations. It is more of a behavioural aspect and can be improved gradually via introspection and self-motivation. It cannot be quantified. Several elements play a vital role in achieving success, but it all starts where attitude meets aptitude. If you have the right attitude but lack the required aptitude, success can be difficult. Attitude defines how you work or proceed toward your goal. Aptitude, on the other hand, defines how much potential you have to learn specific skills or gain knowledge that will help you achieve your goal. Intelligent Quotient (IQ) and Emotional Quotient (EQ): IQ determines the level of intelligence of a person based on the knowledge of the world, working memory, reasoning, etc EQ is the measure of the personal level of emotional intelligence which refers to the ability to identify and understand emotions of self and others For example, it will be the IQ of a public official to understand specialised are of planning, etc IQ measures concepts like logical reasoning, word knowledge and math skills, while EQ measures creative abilities or emotional abilities. The intelligence level or IQ of a person may never change but EQ can be increased through practising self-awareness, self-confidence and self-restraint of emotions. Nishkam Karm: Lord Krishna suggested that EI can be ensured if the path of Nishkam Karm is followed Nishkam Karm is the philosophy of the disinterested performance of duties without any expectation in return It teaches us that duties are to be performed without any selfish motive, desire or anxiety for the results of the action Nishkam Karmas as quality is an assent in civils services as: A certain set of duties have to be performed selflessly and without any expectation The result of action should not agitate their minds even in tense situations However, it is possible only when one is involved in one"s own duty with detachment It is only focused on personal accountability, integrity and honesty Selfish action may lead to unethical practices such as corruption, nepotism, misuse of powers, etc It is helpful in resolving the tension between altruism and self-interest and paves the way for more ethical and holistic governance Many times we will confront a situation that is not in our control and we can only put in efforts without any guarantee of success and In such situations, this philosophy helps us to remain motivated and focussed, etc

Answer: Aptitude and attitude: Aptitude - Competence to perform certain kind/level of job ie specialised ability Attitude - Lasting evaluation/perception of different aspects of For example, Operation Suleimani in District Collector in Kozhikode, Kerela with respect to food crisis by collaborating with large food joints The attitude of DC is of compassion wrt the poor and aptitude is the ability of DC to resort to an innovative solution to food crisis problems, etc Aptitude is the potential of a person to do certain things due to the innate ability or accumulated knowledge and experience. Since it has more to do with intelligence, it can be acquired and enhanced through training and experience. Attitude is the way a person understands, perceives and responds to certain situations. It is more of a behavioural aspect and can be improved gradually via introspection and self-motivation. It cannot be quantified. Several elements play a vital role in achieving success, but it all starts where attitude meets aptitude. If you have the right attitude but lack the required aptitude, success can be difficult. Attitude defines how you work or proceed toward your goal. Aptitude, on the other hand, defines how much potential you have to learn specific skills or gain knowledge that will help you achieve your goal. Intelligent Quotient (IQ) and Emotional Quotient (EQ): IQ determines the level of intelligence of a person based on the knowledge of the world, working memory, reasoning, etc EQ is the measure of the personal level of emotional intelligence which refers to the ability to identify and understand emotions of self and others For example, it will be the IQ of a public official to understand specialised are of planning, etc IQ measures concepts like logical reasoning, word knowledge and math skills, while EQ measures creative abilities or emotional abilities. The intelligence level or IQ of a person may never change but EQ can be increased through practising self-awareness, self-confidence and self-restraint of emotions. Nishkam Karm: Lord Krishna suggested that EI can be ensured if the path of Nishkam Karm is followed Nishkam Karm is the philosophy of the disinterested performance of duties without any expectation in return It teaches us that duties are to be performed without any selfish motive, desire or anxiety for the results of the action Nishkam Karmas as quality is an assent in civils services as: A certain set of duties have to be performed selflessly and without any expectation The result of action should not agitate their minds even in tense situations However, it is possible only when one is involved in one"s own duty with detachment It is only focused on personal accountability, integrity and honesty Selfish action may lead to unethical practices such as corruption, nepotism, misuse of powers, etc It is helpful in resolving the tension between altruism and self-interest and paves the way for more ethical and holistic governance Many times we will confront a situation that is not in our control and we can only put in efforts without any guarantee of success and In such situations, this philosophy helps us to remain motivated and focussed, etc

Discuss the evolution of the cold war as a result of ideological differences and power politics. (150 words/10 marks)
|
APPROACH - Explain briefly about the cold war. Discuss the series of events as the evolution of the cold war justifying how it was a result of ideological differences and power politics. Conclude briefly ANSWER - The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension from 1945 to1991 between the USSR and its satellite states (the Eastern European countries), and the US with its allies (the Western European countries) after World War II. The term "Cold" is used because there was no large-scale fighting directly between the two sides. Communist regime favoured a one-party system, command economy with no private property and ideology of communism belief in on party system and end of capitalism. Capitalistic regimes believed in multiparty democracy and market economy with profit motive and security of property. Series of events - Post-1929, depression there was a strong fear of communism in the capitalist world. Postdam conference - USSR wanted some portion of Poland to be maintained as a buffer zone but the USA and UK didn"t agree to this demand. Despite USSR being an ally, it was not taken into confidence by the US before dropping nuclear bombs on Japan thus USSR felt threatened. Truman doctrine - The Truman Doctrine was a US policy to stop the Soviet Union’s communist and imperialist endeavours, through various ways like providing economic aid to other countries. Historians believe that the announcement of this doctrine marked the official declaration of the Cold War. Iron curtain - Iron Curtain is the political, military, and ideological barrier erected by the Soviet Union after WWII to seal off itself and its dependent eastern and central European allies from open contact with the West and other noncommunist areas. Alliance building - US and USSR engaged in forming military and economic alliances to strengthen themselves and to contain each other, for example, US, marshal aid, 1947-1951, to western Europe. Cuban Missile Crisis- It was a high point of what came to be known as the Cold War. The Cold War referred to the competition, the tensions and a series of confrontations between the US and USSR backed by their respective allies Therefore, it can be said that these two superpowers competed against each other as a defensive approach. Class conflicts - Class conflicts existed across the world therefore communists of third countries desired support of the USSR and non-communists desired support of the US and allies to capture power domestically. Therefore cold war became a global phenomenon and USSR and US were able to interfere in the domestic affairs of third countries. Economic - IMF and the world bank was dominated by the capitalist west. US-supported formation of OEEC 1947, an organisation for European economic cooperation. USSR - Comecon for economic cooperation in the communist world. They attacked each other with economic measures, for example, no IMF or World bank aid to allies of the USSR, marshal aid. CIA give one million dollars to non-communist parties in Itlay in the 1948 elections. The policy of non-cooperation - using veto power to deny membership of UN to other allies. Political interference and even use of force to ensure that pro-US or pro-USSR regimes come to power. For example, the US supported France in the first Indo-china war in 1946-1954- the war was between Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia, the main leader was Ho Chi Minh. Rivalry - Engaged in the space race against each other and contemplated attacking each other with missiles from space. These events prove that Cold War was simply a matter of power rivalries accompanied by a real ideological conflict as well, a difference over the best and the most appropriate way of organising political, economic, and social life all over the world. The loyalties of satellites states and allies were the icing on the cake clearly showing that all the hype was revolving around proving their own ideology right.

Discuss Mahatma Gandhi’s concept of seven sins? How this can be considered to be an ethical code of conduct for public servants in the present scenario? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Introduction - Briefly introduce Mahatma Gandhi"s seven sins ideology. Body - Elaborate on seven sins with examples and act as an ethical code of conduct for public servants Conclusion - Conclude briefly. Answer: Mahatma Gandhi listed down the seven sins which are expressly focused on the conduct of the individual in society and can guide public servants. Gandhi preached non-violence and interdependence and every single one of these sins are an example of selfishness winning out over the common good. Gandhiji went on to say the people should know these social sins not merely through the intellect but through the heart so as to avoid them. He considered these traits to be spiritually perilous for humanity. Seven sins as given by Mahatma Gandhi: Wealth without Work - This refers to the practice of getting something for nothing - manipulating markets and assets so you do not have to work or produce added value, just manipulate people and things. Today there are professions built around making wealth without working, making much money without paying taxes, benefiting from free government programs without carrying a fair share of the financial burdens, and enjoying all the perks of citizenship of country and membership of corporation without assuming any of the risk or responsibility. This practice can be seen in kickbacks and monetary corruption being done by Civil Servants wherein they amass wealth without having to work for it. Pleasure without Conscience - The chief query of the immature, greedy, selfish, and sensuous has always been, "What"s in it for me"; Lately many people seem to want these pleasures without conscience or sense of responsibility, even abandoning or utterly neglecting spouses and children in the name of doing their thing. To learn to give and take, to live selflessly, to be sensitive, to be considerate, is our challenge. Otherwise, there is no sense of social responsibility or accountability in our pleasurable activities. The ultimate costs of pleasures without conscience are high as measured in terms of time and money, in terms of reputation and in terms of wounding the hearts and minds of other people who are adversely affected by those who just want to indulge and gratify themselves in the short term. Knowledge without Character - As dangerous as a little knowledge is, even more, dangerous is much knowledge without a strong, principled character. Purely intellectual development without commensurate internal character development makes as much sense as putting a high-powered sports car in the hands of a teenager who is high on drugs. Yet all too often in the academic world, that"s exactly what we do by not focusing on the character development of young people. Some people don"t like character education because, they say, "that"s your value system".But you can get a common set of values that everyone agrees on. It is not that difficult to decide, for example, that kindness, fairness, dignity, contribution, and integrity are worth keeping Commerce without Morality - Adam Smith explained how foundational to the success of our systems is the moral foundation: how we treat each other, the spirit of benevolence, of service, of contribution. If we ignore the moral foundation and allow economic systems to operate without moral foundation and without continued education, we will soon create an amoral, if not immoral, society and business. Economic and political systems are ultimately based on a moral foundation. Our economic system comes out of a constitutional democracy where minority rights are to be attended to as well. The spirit of the Golden Rule or of win-win is a spirit of morality, of mutual benefit, of fairness for all concerned. If one can get enough rationalization in a society, one can have social mores or political wills that are totally divorced from natural laws and principles. Science without Humanity - If science becomes all technique and technology, it quickly degenerates into man against humanity. Technologies come from the paradigms of science. And if there is very little understanding of the higher human purposes that the technology is striving to serve, we become victims of our own technocracy. We may see an evolution in science, but without humanity, we see precious little real human advancement. All the old inequities and injustices are still with us. Religion Without Sacrifice - Without sacrifice, we may become active in religion but remain inactive in its gospel. In other words, we go for the social facade of religion and the piety of religious practices. There is no real walking with people or going the second mile or trying to deal with our social problems that may eventually undo our economic system. It takes sacrifice to serve the needs of other people - the sacrifice of our own pride and prejudice, among other things. If religion is seen as just another hierarchical system then it will be into outward observances. But they are neither God-centered nor principle-centred. The great servant leaders have that humility, the hallmark of inner religion is humble civil servants who sacrifice their pride and share their power and eventually empower people. Politics without Principle - If there is no principle, there is no true north, nothing you can depend upon. The focus on the personality ethic is the instant creation of an image that sells well in the social and economic marketplace. The key to a healthy society is to get the social will, the value system, aligned with correct principles. Mahatma Gandhi said that seven things will destroy us. It is to be noted that all of them have to do with social and political conditions. Also, that the antidote of each of these “deadly sins” is an explicit external standard or something that is based on natural principles and laws, not on social values. Gandhi’s seven social sins refer to behaviours that go against this ethical code and thereby weaken society. When values are not strongly held, people respond weakly to crisis and difficulty.

The ultimate costs of pleasures without conscience are high as measured in terms of time and money, in terms of reputation and in terms of wounding the hearts and minds of other people who are adversely affected by those who just want to indulge and gratify themselves in the short term. Knowledge without Character - As dangerous as a little knowledge is, even more, dangerous is much knowledge without a strong, principled character. Purely intellectual development without commensurate internal character development makes as much sense as putting a high-powered sports car in the hands of a teenager who is high on drugs. Yet all too often in the academic world, that"s exactly what we do by not focusing on the character development of young people. Some people don"t like character education because, they say, "that"s your value system".But you can get a common set of values that everyone agrees on. It is not that difficult to decide, for example, that kindness, fairness, dignity, contribution, and integrity are worth keeping Commerce without Morality - Adam Smith explained how foundational to the success of our systems is the moral foundation: how we treat each other, the spirit of benevolence, of service, of contribution. If we ignore the moral foundation and allow economic systems to operate without moral foundation and without continued education, we will soon create an amoral, if not immoral, society and business. Economic and political systems are ultimately based on a moral foundation. Our economic system comes out of a constitutional democracy where minority rights are to be attended to as well. The spirit of the Golden Rule or of win-win is a spirit of morality, of mutual benefit, of fairness for all concerned. If one can get enough rationalization in a society, one can have social mores or political wills that are totally divorced from natural laws and principles. Science without Humanity - If science becomes all technique and technology, it quickly degenerates into man against humanity. Technologies come from the paradigms of science. And if there is very little understanding of the higher human purposes that the technology is striving to serve, we become victims of our own technocracy. We may see an evolution in science, but without humanity, we see precious little real human advancement. All the old inequities and injustices are still with us. Religion Without Sacrifice - Without sacrifice, we may become active in religion but remain inactive in its gospel. In other words, we go for the social facade of religion and the piety of religious practices. There is no real walking with people or going the second mile or trying to deal with our social problems that may eventually undo our economic system. It takes sacrifice to serve the needs of other people - the sacrifice of our own pride and prejudice, among other things. If religion is seen as just another hierarchical system then it will be into outward observances. But they are neither God-centered nor principle-centred. The great servant leaders have that humility, the hallmark of inner religion is humble civil servants who sacrifice their pride and share their power and eventually empower people. Politics without Principle - If there is no principle, there is no true north, nothing you can depend upon. The focus on the personality ethic is the instant creation of an image that sells well in the social and economic marketplace. The key to a healthy society is to get the social will, the value system, aligned with correct principles. Mahatma Gandhi said that seven things will destroy us. It is to be noted that all of them have to do with social and political conditions. Also, that the antidote of each of these “deadly sins” is an explicit external standard or something that is based on natural principles and laws, not on social values. Gandhi’s seven social sins refer to behaviours that go against this ethical code and thereby weaken society. When values are not strongly held, people respond weakly to crisis and difficulty.

##Question:Discuss Mahatma Gandhi’s concept of seven sins? How this can be considered to be an ethical code of conduct for public servants in the present scenario? (10 Marks/150 Words)##Answer:Approach: Introduction - Briefly introduce Mahatma Gandhi"s seven sins ideology. Body - Elaborate on seven sins with examples and act as an ethical code of conduct for public servants Conclusion - Conclude briefly. Answer: Mahatma Gandhi listed down the seven sins which are expressly focused on the conduct of the individual in society and can guide public servants. Gandhi preached non-violence and interdependence and every single one of these sins are an example of selfishness winning out over the common good. Gandhiji went on to say the people should know these social sins not merely through the intellect but through the heart so as to avoid them. He considered these traits to be spiritually perilous for humanity. Seven sins as given by Mahatma Gandhi: Wealth without Work - This refers to the practice of getting something for nothing - manipulating markets and assets so you do not have to work or produce added value, just manipulate people and things. Today there are professions built around making wealth without working, making much money without paying taxes, benefiting from free government programs without carrying a fair share of the financial burdens, and enjoying all the perks of citizenship of country and membership of corporation without assuming any of the risk or responsibility. This practice can be seen in kickbacks and monetary corruption being done by Civil Servants wherein they amass wealth without having to work for it. Pleasure without Conscience - The chief query of the immature, greedy, selfish, and sensuous has always been, "What"s in it for me"; Lately many people seem to want these pleasures without conscience or sense of responsibility, even abandoning or utterly neglecting spouses and children in the name of doing their thing.

Gandhi’s seven social sins refer to behaviours that go against this ethical code and thereby weaken society. When values are not strongly held, people respond weakly to crisis and difficulty.

##Question:Discuss Mahatma Gandhi’s concept of seven sins? How this can be considered to be an ethical code of conduct for public servants in the present scenario? (10 Marks/150 Words)##Answer:Approach: Introduction - Briefly introduce Mahatma Gandhi"s seven sins ideology. Body - Elaborate on seven sins with examples and act as an ethical code of conduct for public servants Conclusion - Conclude briefly. Answer: Mahatma Gandhi listed down the seven sins which are expressly focused on the conduct of the individual in society and can guide public servants. Gandhi preached non-violence and interdependence and every single one of these sins are an example of selfishness winning out over the common good. Gandhiji went on to say the people should know these social sins not merely through the intellect but through the heart so as to avoid them. He considered these traits to be spiritually perilous for humanity. Seven sins as given by Mahatma Gandhi: Wealth without Work - This refers to the practice of getting something for nothing - manipulating markets and assets so you do not have to work or produce added value, just manipulate people and things. Today there are professions built around making wealth without working, making much money without paying taxes, benefiting from free government programs without carrying a fair share of the financial burdens, and enjoying all the perks of citizenship of country and membership of corporation without assuming any of the risk or responsibility. This practice can be seen in kickbacks and monetary corruption being done by Civil Servants wherein they amass wealth without having to work for it. Pleasure without Conscience - The chief query of the immature, greedy, selfish, and sensuous has always been, "What"s in it for me"; Lately many people seem to want these pleasures without conscience or sense of responsibility, even abandoning or utterly neglecting spouses and children in the name of doing their thing. To learn to give and take, to live selflessly, to be sensitive, to be considerate, is our challenge. Otherwise, there is no sense of social responsibility or accountability in our pleasurable activities. The ultimate costs of pleasures without conscience are high as measured in terms of time and money, in terms of reputation and in terms of wounding the hearts and minds of other people who are adversely affected by those who just want to indulge and gratify themselves in the short term. Knowledge without Character - As dangerous as a little knowledge is, even more, dangerous is much knowledge without a strong, principled character. Purely intellectual development without commensurate internal character development makes as much sense as putting a high-powered sports car in the hands of a teenager who is high on drugs. Yet all too often in the academic world, that"s exactly what we do by not focusing on the character development of young people. Some people don"t like character education because, they say, "that"s your value system".But you can get a common set of values that everyone agrees on. It is not that difficult to decide, for example, that kindness, fairness, dignity, contribution, and integrity are worth keeping Commerce without Morality - Adam Smith explained how foundational to the success of our systems is the moral foundation: how we treat each other, the spirit of benevolence, of service, of contribution. If we ignore the moral foundation and allow economic systems to operate without moral foundation and without continued education, we will soon create an amoral, if not immoral, society and business. Economic and political systems are ultimately based on a moral foundation. Our economic system comes out of a constitutional democracy where minority rights are to be attended to as well. The spirit of the Golden Rule or of win-win is a spirit of morality, of mutual benefit, of fairness for all concerned. If one can get enough rationalization in a society, one can have social mores or political wills that are totally divorced from natural laws and principles. Science without Humanity - If science becomes all technique and technology, it quickly degenerates into man against humanity. Technologies come from the paradigms of science. And if there is very little understanding of the higher human purposes that the technology is striving to serve, we become victims of our own technocracy. We may see an evolution in science, but without humanity, we see precious little real human advancement. All the old inequities and injustices are still with us. Religion Without Sacrifice - Without sacrifice, we may become active in religion but remain inactive in its gospel. In other words, we go for the social facade of religion and the piety of religious practices. There is no real walking with people or going the second mile or trying to deal with our social problems that may eventually undo our economic system. It takes sacrifice to serve the needs of other people - the sacrifice of our own pride and prejudice, among other things. If religion is seen as just another hierarchical system then it will be into outward observances. But they are neither God-centered nor principle-centred.

Pleasure without Conscience - The chief query of the immature, greedy, selfish, and sensuous has always been, "What"s in it for me"; Lately many people seem to want these pleasures without conscience or sense of responsibility, even abandoning or utterly neglecting spouses and children in the name of doing their thing. To learn to give and take, to live selflessly, to be sensitive, to be considerate, is our challenge. Otherwise, there is no sense of social responsibility or accountability in our pleasurable activities. The ultimate costs of pleasures without conscience are high as measured in terms of time and money, in terms of reputation and in terms of wounding the hearts and minds of other people who are adversely affected by those who just want to indulge and gratify themselves in the short term. Knowledge without Character - As dangerous as a little knowledge is, even more, dangerous is much knowledge without a strong, principled character. Purely intellectual development without commensurate internal character development makes as much sense as putting a high-powered sports car in the hands of a teenager who is high on drugs. Yet all too often in the academic world, that"s exactly what we do by not focusing on the character development of young people. Some people don"t like character education because, they say, "that"s your value system".But you can get a common set of values that everyone agrees on. It is not that difficult to decide, for example, that kindness, fairness, dignity, contribution, and integrity are worth keeping Commerce without Morality - Adam Smith explained how foundational to the success of our systems is the moral foundation: how we treat each other, the spirit of benevolence, of service, of contribution. If we ignore the moral foundation and allow economic systems to operate without moral foundation and without continued education, we will soon create an amoral, if not immoral, society and business. Economic and political systems are ultimately based on a moral foundation. Our economic system comes out of a constitutional democracy where minority rights are to be attended to as well. The spirit of the Golden Rule or of win-win is a spirit of morality, of mutual benefit, of fairness for all concerned. If one can get enough rationalization in a society, one can have social mores or political wills that are totally divorced from natural laws and principles. Science without Humanity - If science becomes all technique and technology, it quickly degenerates into man against humanity. Technologies come from the paradigms of science. And if there is very little understanding of the higher human purposes that the technology is striving to serve, we become victims of our own technocracy. We may see an evolution in science, but without humanity, we see precious little real human advancement. All the old inequities and injustices are still with us. Religion Without Sacrifice - Without sacrifice, we may become active in religion but remain inactive in its gospel. In other words, we go for the social facade of religion and the piety of religious practices. There is no real walking with people or going the second mile or trying to deal with our social problems that may eventually undo our economic system. It takes sacrifice to serve the needs of other people - the sacrifice of our own pride and prejudice, among other things. If religion is seen as just another hierarchical system then it will be into outward observances. But they are neither God-centered nor principle-centred. The great servant leaders have that humility, the hallmark of inner religion is humble civil servants who sacrifice their pride and share their power and eventually empower people. Politics without Principle - If there is no principle, there is no true north, nothing you can depend upon. The focus on the personality ethic is the instant creation of an image that sells well in the social and economic marketplace. The key to a healthy society is to get the social will, the value system, aligned with correct principles. Mahatma Gandhi said that seven things will destroy us. It is to be noted that all of them have to do with social and political conditions. Also, that the antidote of each of these “deadly sins” is an explicit external standard or something that is based on natural principles and laws, not on social values. Gandhi’s seven social sins refer to behaviours that go against this ethical code and thereby weaken society. When values are not strongly held, people respond weakly to crisis and difficulty.

Discuss Mahatma Gandhi’s concept of seven sins? How this can be considered to be an ethical code of conduct for public servants in the present scenario? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Introduction - Briefly introduce Mahatma Gandhi"s seven sins ideology. Body - Elaborate on seven sins with examples and act as an ethical code of conduct for public servants Conclusion - Conclude briefly. Answer: Mahatma Gandhi listed down the seven sins which are expressly focused on the conduct of the individual in society and can guide public servants. Gandhi preached non-violence and interdependence and every single one of these sins are an example of selfishness winning out over the common good. Gandhiji went on to say the people should know these social sins not merely through the intellect but through the heart so as to avoid them. He considered these traits to be spiritually perilous for humanity. Seven sins as given by Mahatma Gandhi: Wealth without Work - This refers to the practice of getting something for nothing - manipulating markets and assets so you do not have to work or produce added value, just manipulate people and things.

We may see an evolution in science, but without humanity, we see precious little real human advancement. All the old inequities and injustices are still with us. Religion Without Sacrifice - Without sacrifice, we may become active in religion but remain inactive in its gospel. In other words, we go for the social facade of religion and the piety of religious practices. There is no real walking with people or going the second mile or trying to deal with our social problems that may eventually undo our economic system. It takes sacrifice to serve the needs of other people - the sacrifice of our own pride and prejudice, among other things. If religion is seen as just another hierarchical system then it will be into outward observances. But they are neither God-centered nor principle-centred. The great servant leaders have that humility, the hallmark of inner religion is humble civil servants who sacrifice their pride and share their power and eventually empower people. Politics without Principle - If there is no principle, there is no true north, nothing you can depend upon. The focus on the personality ethic is the instant creation of an image that sells well in the social and economic marketplace. The key to a healthy society is to get the social will, the value system, aligned with correct principles. Mahatma Gandhi said that seven things will destroy us. It is to be noted that all of them have to do with social and political conditions. Also, that the antidote of each of these “deadly sins” is an explicit external standard or something that is based on natural principles and laws, not on social values. Gandhi’s seven social sins refer to behaviours that go against this ethical code and thereby weaken society. When values are not strongly held, people respond weakly to crisis and difficulty.

Discuss Mahatma Gandhi’s concept of seven sins? How this can be considered to be an ethical code of conduct for public servants in the present scenario? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach : Introduction - Briefly introduce Mahatma Gandhi"s seven sins ideology. Body - Elaborate on seven sins with examples and act as an ethical code of conduct for public servants Conclusion - Conclude briefly. Answer : Mahatma Gandhi listed down the seven sins which are expressly focused on the conduct of the individual in society and can guide public servants. Gandhi preached non-violence and interdependence and every single one of these sins are an example of selfishness winning out over the common good. Gandhiji went on to say the people should know these social sins not merely through the intellect but through the heart so as to avoid them. He considered these traits to be spiritually perilous for humanity. Seven sins as given by Mahatma Gandhi: Wealth without Work - This refers to the practice of getting something for nothing - manipulating markets and assets so you do not have to work or produce added value, just manipulate people and things. Today there are professions built around making wealth without working, making much money without paying taxes, benefiting from free government programs without carrying a fair share of the financial burdens, and enjoying all the perks of citizenship of country and membership of corporation without assuming any of the risk or responsibility. This practice can be seen in kickbacks and monetary corruption being done by Civil Servants wherein they amass wealth without having to work for it. Pleasure without Conscience - The chief query of the immature, greedy, selfish, and sensuous has always been, "What"s in it for me"; Lately many people seem to want these pleasures without conscience or sense of responsibility, even abandoning or utterly neglecting spouses and children in the name of doing their thing. To learn to give and take, to live selflessly, to be sensitive, to be considerate, is our challenge. Otherwise, there is no sense of social responsibility or accountability in our pleasurable activities. The ultimate costs of pleasures without conscience are high as measured in terms of time and money, in terms of reputation and in terms of wounding the hearts and minds of other people who are adversely affected by those who just want to indulge and gratify themselves in the short term. Knowledge without Character - As dangerous as a little knowledge is, even more, dangerous is much knowledge without a strong, principled character. Purely intellectual development without commensurate internal character development makes as much sense as putting a high-powered sports car in the hands of a teenager who is high on drugs. Yet all too often in the academic world, that"s exactly what we do by not focusing on the character development of young people. Some people don"t like character education because, they say, "that"s your value system".But you can get a common set of values that everyone agrees on. It is not that difficult to decide, for example, that kindness, fairness, dignity, contribution, and integrity are worth keeping Commerce without Morality - Adam Smith explained how foundational to the success of our systems is the moral foundation: how we treat each other, the spirit of benevolence, of service, of contribution. If we ignore the moral foundation and allow economic systems to operate without moral foundation and without continued education, we will soon create an amoral, if not immoral, society and business. Economic and political systems are ultimately based on a moral foundation. Our economic system comes out of a constitutional democracy where minority rights are to be attended to as well. The spirit of the Golden Rule or of win-win is a spirit of morality, of mutual benefit, of fairness for all concerned. If one can get enough rationalization in a society, one can have social mores or political wills that are totally divorced from natural laws and principles. Science without Humanity - If science becomes all technique and technology, it quickly degenerates into man against humanity. Technologies come from the paradigms of science. And if there is very little understanding of the higher human purposes that the technology is striving to serve, we become victims of our own technocracy. We may see an evolution in science, but without humanity, we see precious little real human advancement. All the old inequities and injustices are still with us.

"Corruption causes misuse of government treasury, administrative inefficiency and obstruction in the path of national development. " Discuss Kautilya"s views on it? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Introduce briefly about corruption with the view of Kautilya. In body establish how corruption causes misuse of government treasury, administrative inefficiency and obstruction in the path of national development. Conclude with the way forward Answer Corruption is a form of dishonesty or criminal offense undertaken by a person or organization entrusted with a position of authority, to acquire illicit benefit or abuse power for one’s private gain. It is one of the social vice that can reduce governance and cause failure of system. Corruption has been a challenge for administration since ancient times. The Kautilya treatise of Arthashastra discusses in depth the administrative setup for efficient and effective governance. He has laid great emphasis on managing finance. He has explained why corruption occurs and what are its impact and remedies. How corruption causes governance collapse and reduce development: Using government money for own benefits The major form of corruption in individuals involved in government services is misappropriation of state funds in order to enrich themselves. The money that was intended for welfare of society instead reaches their personal account. Ex: The Commonwealth games scandal in which individuals misused government funds to fill their pockets. Causing policy paralysis The individuals in power use their position to prevent administrative files from moving forward demanding favours or bribe in return. Thus the individuals or society as a whole looses out on development, which would have been possible without corruption in between. Ex: A clerk in revenue department demanding bribe in return for forwarding a file that allocates funds for a certain project. Increasing time duration in allocating resources Individuals can purposefully increase the impediments in getting a work done in order to get something back in return. This will make governance process more complex and create administrative inefficiency. Ex: A government officers will have to undertake the standard procedures as fast as possible under normal circumstances. Their purposeful delay will create delay in administration. Thus, corruption indeed is a very big nuisance in every part of the world that hampers economic growth, reduces administrative efficiency and causes delay in development. Remedial measures suggested: Constant vigil, through a system of checks and supervision to monitor the functioning of government offices Sufficient remuneration to bureaucracy to enjoy „bodily comfort‟. (He suggested 1/4th of the government revenue be spent on salaries.) Putting in place an „information organization‟. He envisaged having informers in each organization to report corruption. Strong punitive measures including fines, confiscation of property, jail terms, etc. Measures such as naming and shaming too were envisaged to have sufficient detterance effect. Steps should be taken to change the psychology of officers to keep them upright. Follow of rule of law and an impersonalized, impartial, non-emotive approach towards administration. Corruption has been prevalent since the ancient times. Kautilya clarifies corruption as an errant and deviant behaviour that should not only be disincentivized but punished appropriately in order to achieve the goal of welfare of the nation

"Corruption causes misuse of government treasury, administrative inefficiency and obstruction in the path of national development. " Discuss Kautilya"s views on it? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Introduce briefly about corruption with the view of Kautilya. In body establish how corruption causes misuse of government treasury, administrative inefficiency and obstruction in the path of national development. Conclude with the way forward Answer Corruption is a form of dishonesty or criminal offense undertaken by a person or organization entrusted with a position of authority, to acquire illicit benefit or abuse power for one’s private gain. It is one of the social vice that can reduce governance and cause failure of system. Corruption has been a challenge for administration since ancient times. The Kautilya treatise of Arthashastra discusses in depth the administrative setup for efficient and effective governance. He has laid great emphasis on managing finance. He has explained why corruption occurs and what are its impact and remedies. How corruption causes governance collapse and reduce development: Using government money for own benefits The major form of corruption in individuals involved in government services is misappropriation of state funds in order to enrich themselves. The money that was intended for welfare of society instead reaches their personal account. Ex: The Commonwealth games scandal in which individuals misused government funds to fill their pockets. Causing policy paralysis The individuals in power use their position to prevent administrative files from moving forward demanding favours or bribe in return. Thus the individuals or society as a whole looses out on development, which would have been possible without corruption in between. Ex: A clerk in revenue department demanding bribe in return for forwarding a file that allocates funds for a certain project. Increasing time duration in allocating resources Individuals can purposefully increase the impediments in getting a work done in order to get something back in return. This will make governance process more complex and create administrative inefficiency. Ex: A government officers will have to undertake the standard procedures as fast as possible under normal circumstances. Their purposeful delay will create delay in administration. Thus, corruption indeed is a very big nuisance in every part of the world that hampers economic growth, reduces administrative efficiency and causes delay in development. Remedial measures suggested: Constant vigil, through a system of checks and supervision to monitor the functioning of government offices Sufficient remuneration to bureaucracy to enjoy „bodily comfort‟. (He suggested 1/4th of the government revenue be spent on salaries.) Putting in place an „information organization‟. He envisaged having informers in each organization to report corruption. Strong punitive measures including fines, confiscation of property, jail terms, etc. Measures such as naming and shaming too were envisaged to have sufficient detterance effect. Steps should be taken to change the psychology of officers to keep them upright. Follow of rule of law and an impersonalized, impartial, non-emotive approach towards administration. Corruption has been prevalent since the ancient times. Kautilya clarifies corruption as an errant and deviant behaviour that should not only be disincentivized but punished appropriately in order to achieve the goal of welfare of the nation

Approach : Introduce briefly about corruption with the view of Kautilya. In body establish how corruption causes misuse of government treasury, administrative inefficiency and obstruction in the path of national development. Conclude with the way forward Answer Corruption is a form of dishonesty or criminal offense undertaken by a person or organization entrusted with a position of authority, to acquire illicit benefit or abuse power for one’s private gain. It is one of the social vice that can reduce governance and cause failure of system. Corruption has been a challenge for administration since ancient times. The Kautilya treatise of Arthashastra discusses in depth the administrative setup for efficient and effective governance. He has laid great emphasis on managing finance. He has explained why corruption occurs and what are its impact and remedies. How corruption causes governance collapse and reduce development: Using government money for own benefits The major form of corruption in individuals involved in government services is misappropriation of state funds in order to enrich themselves. The money that was intended for welfare of society instead reaches their personal account. Ex: The Commonwealth games scandal in which individuals misused government funds to fill their pockets. Causing policy paralysis The individuals in power use their position to prevent administrative files from moving forward demanding favours or bribe in return. Thus the individuals or society as a whole looses out on development, which would have been possible without corruption in between. Ex: A clerk in revenue department demanding bribe in return for forwarding a file that allocates funds for a certain project. Increasing time duration in allocating resources Individuals can purposefully increase the impediments in getting a work done in order to get something back in return.

Approach: Introduce briefly about corruption with the view of Kautilya. In body establish how corruption causes misuse of government treasury, administrative inefficiency and obstruction in the path of national development. Conclude with the way forward Answer Corruption is a form of dishonesty or criminal offense undertaken by a person or organization entrusted with a position of authority, to acquire illicit benefit or abuse power for one’s private gain. It is one of the social vice that can reduce governance and cause failure of system. Corruption has been a challenge for administration since ancient times. The Kautilya treatise of Arthashastra discusses in depth the administrative setup for efficient and effective governance. He has laid great emphasis on managing finance. He has explained why corruption occurs and what are its impact and remedies. How corruption causes governance collapse and reduce development: Using government money for own benefits The major form of corruption in individuals involved in government services is misappropriation of state funds in order to enrich themselves. The money that was intended for welfare of society instead reaches their personal account. Ex: The Commonwealth games scandal in which individuals misused government funds to fill their pockets. Causing policy paralysis The individuals in power use their position to prevent administrative files from moving forward demanding favours or bribe in return. Thus the individuals or society as a whole looses out on development, which would have been possible without corruption in between. Ex: A clerk in revenue department demanding bribe in return for forwarding a file that allocates funds for a certain project. Increasing time duration in allocating resources Individuals can purposefully increase the impediments in getting a work done in order to get something back in return. This will make governance process more complex and create administrative inefficiency. Ex: A government officers will have to undertake the standard procedures as fast as possible under normal circumstances. Their purposeful delay will create delay in administration. Thus, corruption indeed is a very big nuisance in every part of the world that hampers economic growth, reduces administrative efficiency and causes delay in development.

"Human beings should always be treated as "ends" in themselves and never as merely `means"." Discuss? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Introduce briefly by explaining in breif about Immanuel Kant and his perspective of the quote In the body explain the significance and meaning of the quote with example Conclude briefly Answer: Immanuel Kant’s theory of morality, the categorical imperative, states that it is immoral to use another person merely as a means to an end and that people must under all circumstances betreated as ends in themselves. This is in contrast to some interpretations of the utilitarian view, which allow for use of individuals as means to benefit the many. The philosopher immanuel kant once said “act so as to treat people always as ends in themselves,never as mere means”. The idea here is that other people are valuable not merely in so far as they can serve our purposes;they are also valuable in themselves. Kant said that rational human beings should be treated as an end in themselves and not as a means to something else. The fact that we are human has value in itself.If a person is an end-in-themself it means their inherent value doesn’t depend on anything else – it doesn’t depend on whether the person is enjoying their life, or making other people’s lives better. We exist, so we have value. This idea applies to us too. We shouldn’t treat ourselves as a means to our own ends; instead we should respect our inherent worth. This can be used as an argument against euthanasia, suicide and other behaviors that damage us. The signnificance of this lies in the fact that it gives highest consideration to a human life it provides a maxiim, which can be very useful in making ethical choices.stability and equality can be achieved in the society by following this principle.it is very important especially in the present society,which is dominated by technological innovations and neo-liberlism. Taking the example of slavery where human beings are treated as “means” for achieving the “ends” that is profit motive. Human intrinsic worth i.e. dignity is not respected and they are exploited for petty gains. This lead to inequality in society where one section of people exploiting other section for self-motive. Some people justify the slavery on the premises that it was based on contract between master and slave. But this argument does not hold ground because slave did not accept to slavery on free will and they might not be in their right state of mind thinking rationally and make a decision. In the present society,every human action has been commodified,every person used to charge for his services and those who cannot work like disabled and old age people are considered useless for the society.every human life isnot equal,life of a rich is more important than the poor,poor people are being eexploitation by the rich for their personal benefits.Discrimination,margininnalistion,exploitation and as a result ineaquality is increasing at a faster pace. Another simple example of exam time friendships where one befriends an intelligent student just to take her help to pass exam and then ditch her and go away with old friends after exams. This will hurt the dignity of student as she is just being used as a means to achieve the end. On the other hand they could have been friends for forever enjoying the company of each other and helping each other in times of need. In this case the intrinsic value of intelligent student was respected. Kant philosophy of human individuals as end in itself endorses the golden rule of “treating others as one’s self would wish to be treated”. As no one would wish to be used simply as a means, therefore one should not also use other human beings as means to achieve their ends. This philosophy can be of great help in resolving the ethical dilemmas where there is debate between relative importance of means and ends. If we really wnt to reserve these situations and humanity to prosper,we need to implement this phrase in’letter and sprit”in our life.

Mention how the classical dance of India enforced within itself, the aspect of Salvation. [150 words/10Marks]
|
Answer: Excavations, inscriptions, chronicles, genealogies of kings and artists, literary sources, sculpture, and painting of different periods provide extensive evidence on dance in India. Contemporary classical dance forms have evolved out of the musical play or sangeet-nataka performed from the 12th century to the 19th century. The Indian classical dances have two basic aspects - Tandava (movement & rhythm) and Lasya (grace, bhava & rasa). The three main components are- Natya (the dramatic element of the dance i.e. the imitation of characters) Nritta (the dance movements in their basic form) Nritya (expressional component i.e. mudras or gestures). The nine rasas are - Love, Heroism, Pathos, Humour, Anger, Fear, Disgust, Wonder, and Peace. The Natya Shastra written by Bharat Muni is the most prominent source for the Indian aestheticians for establishing the characteristics of the dances. classical dance of India enforced within itself, the aspect of Salvation in the following manner in different classical dance: Bharatnatyam (Tamil Nadu) : The Abhinaya Darpana by Nandikesvara is one of the main sources of textual material, for the study of the technique and grammar of body movement in Bharatnatyam Dance. Bharatnatyam dance is known to be ekaharya, where one dancer takes on many roles in a single performance. Kathak (North India): Kathak began evolving into a distinct mode of dance in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries with the spread of the bhakti movement. The legends of Radha-Krishna were enacted in folk plays called rasa lila, which combined folk dance with the basic gestures of the kathak storytellers. Kathakali (Kerala) : Kathakali is a blend of dance, music and acting and dramatizes stories, which are mostly adapted from the Indian epics. The dancers enact the roles (kings, gods, demons etc.) of the stories with particular make-up and costume, the vocalists narrate the legend and the percussionists play the musical instruments. Kuchipuddi (Andhra-Pradesh) In 17th century Kuchipudi style of Yakshagaana was conceived by Siddhendra Yogi. He was steeped in the literary Yakshagaana tradition being guided by his guru Teerthanaaraayana Yogi who composed the Krishna-Leelatarangini, a kaavya in Sanskrit. Mohiniyattam (Kerala) : Mohiniyattam or dance of Mohini (an incarnation of Lord Vishnu) is the classical solo dance form of Kerala. Odissi (Odisha) : The major subjects of performance are lores of incarnations of Lord Vishnu and verses of Jayadeva’s Gita Govinda. Sattriya (Assam): The Sattriya dance form was introduced in the 15th century A.D by the Vaishnava saint and reformer of Assam, Sankaradeva as a medium for propagation of the Vaishnava faith. Manipuri (Manipur) : The dance in Manipur is associated with rituals and traditional festivals, there are legendary references to the dances of Shiva and Parvati and other gods and goddesses who created the universe. The concept of Moksha/Salvation emerges from the concept of purushartha. Purush here refers to the primal man, who is the source of the universe. Scholars believe that this purush is not gender-specific and can include both men and women. Artha means the purpose or aim of life. Therefore purushartha refers to the aims in life. We all must design our lives in such a way that we fulfill our purushartha. The better we fulfill our aims of life, the higher are the chances of attaining moksha. Ashim Bandhu Bhattacharya is a name to reckon with in the field of Kathak in Kolkata. He said, As for me, my salvation is through dance. My only aim is to spend my entire life with dance

##Question:Mention how the classical dance of India enforced within itself, the aspect of Salvation. [150 words/10Marks]##Answer:Answer: Excavations, inscriptions, chronicles, genealogies of kings and artists, literary sources, sculpture, and painting of different periods provide extensive evidence on dance in India. Contemporary classical dance forms have evolved out of the musical play or sangeet-nataka performed from the 12th century to the 19th century. The Indian classical dances have two basic aspects - Tandava (movement & rhythm) and Lasya (grace, bhava & rasa). The three main components are- Natya (the dramatic element of the dance i.e. the imitation of characters) Nritta (the dance movements in their basic form) Nritya (expressional component i.e. mudras or gestures). The nine rasas are - Love, Heroism, Pathos, Humour, Anger, Fear, Disgust, Wonder, and Peace. The Natya Shastra written by Bharat Muni is the most prominent source for the Indian aestheticians for establishing the characteristics of the dances. classical dance of India enforced within itself, the aspect of Salvation in the following manner in different classical dance: Bharatnatyam (Tamil Nadu) : The Abhinaya Darpana by Nandikesvara is one of the main sources of textual material, for the study of the technique and grammar of body movement in Bharatnatyam Dance. Bharatnatyam dance is known to be ekaharya, where one dancer takes on many roles in a single performance. Kathak (North India): Kathak began evolving into a distinct mode of dance in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries with the spread of the bhakti movement. The legends of Radha-Krishna were enacted in folk plays called rasa lila, which combined folk dance with the basic gestures of the kathak storytellers. Kathakali (Kerala) : Kathakali is a blend of dance, music and acting and dramatizes stories, which are mostly adapted from the Indian epics. The dancers enact the roles (kings, gods, demons etc.) of the stories with particular make-up and costume, the vocalists narrate the legend and the percussionists play the musical instruments. Kuchipuddi (Andhra-Pradesh) In 17th century Kuchipudi style of Yakshagaana was conceived by Siddhendra Yogi. He was steeped in the literary Yakshagaana tradition being guided by his guru Teerthanaaraayana Yogi who composed the Krishna-Leelatarangini, a kaavya in Sanskrit. Mohiniyattam (Kerala) : Mohiniyattam or dance of Mohini (an incarnation of Lord Vishnu) is the classical solo dance form of Kerala. Odissi (Odisha) : The major subjects of performance are lores of incarnations of Lord Vishnu and verses of Jayadeva’s Gita Govinda. Sattriya (Assam): The Sattriya dance form was introduced in the 15th century A.D by the Vaishnava saint and reformer of Assam, Sankaradeva as a medium for propagation of the Vaishnava faith. Manipuri (Manipur) : The dance in Manipur is associated with rituals and traditional festivals, there are legendary references to the dances of Shiva and Parvati and other gods and goddesses who created the universe. The concept of Moksha/Salvation emerges from the concept of purushartha. Purush here refers to the primal man, who is the source of the universe. Scholars believe that this purush is not gender-specific and can include both men and women. Artha means the purpose or aim of life. Therefore purushartha refers to the aims in life. We all must design our lives in such a way that we fulfill our purushartha. The better we fulfill our aims of life, the higher are the chances of attaining moksha.

India has made tremendous gains in poverty reduction in the post-reform era. Discuss. (150 words/ 10 marks)
|
Approach: Write briefly about the poverty in India. Mention the pace of poverty reduction before and after the reform period(1992). Mention the challenges that still remain regarding poverty reduction in India. Conclude accordingly. Answer: India is home to 1/4th of the world"s poor. thus there has been a consistent effort by the various governments to reduce the poverty level right since the independence. The pace of poverty reduction before the reform era: In the post-independence period for the 1st 5 decades, India"s pace of poverty reduction was abysmally slow. After independence in 1950, about 60% of the population was under the poverty line. In 1994 it came down to 45% thus the poverty reduction happened at a slow pace. The pace of poverty reduction after the 1992 reforms kicked in : The pace of poverty reduction increased only in the 90s and further in the 2000s. Poverty according to Tendulkar line: 2004-05(37.2%), in 2009-10(29.8%), and in 2011-12(21.9%). The increase in pace is largely attributable to a higher pace of growth. there is a strong correlation between growth and poverty alleviation. for every 1% increase in growth rate is associated with a 0.6% increase in the pace of poverty reduction. The growth rate of the population declined and the growth rate of the economy increases leading to higher per capita increases and more resources in the hands of the government. Thus higher growth created conditions in which the government had more resources to spend on poverty alleviation and to reduce the vulnerabilities of the people at the bottom. All measures of poverty, official estimates, world bank estimates, and MPI estimates point to the fact that India has uplifted millions out of poverty at a record pace. The challenges that still remain regarding poverty reduction in India: However a considerable reduction in poverty, there is still a long way to go before the poor are actually insulated from various dimensions of deprivation. India is now a low-middle-income country, at its income level, the poverty line is 3.2 dollars/ person/day, whereas the official poverty line is still coincidentally, close to 1.9 dollars/person/day. At 3.2 dollars the estimated headcount ratio is about 40% whereas at 1.9 dollars it is around 6-8%. this showed that despite uplifting people out of poverty most of them have only barely been uplifted and continue to remain vulnerable. The recent covid-19 pandemic has pushed many people back into extreme poverty and threatens the gains made over the decades. The government support to sections just above the PL cannot merely be withdrawn because these people are no longer officially poor. It must continue to make them capable in order to sustainably shield themself from falling back in the poverty.

Write down the main provisions of the Congress-League Agreement in the Lucknow session of 1916. Also, critically analyze this agreement. (150 words/10 marks)
|
Approach Introduction-Write briefly about Lucknow pact Main body- illustrate the main provisions of the Lucknow Pact Critical evaluation-write the positive outcomes as well shortfall of the Lucknow Pact Conclusion Answer Lucknow Pact was an agreement held in Lucknow, in 1916 at the joint session of both the parties (Muslim League and the Indian National Congress). According to the pact, Congress and the League agreed to join their efforts in order to get their political aspirations fulfilled. Provisions of Lucknow Pact 1916: -A majority of the members of the Legislative Councils to be elected. -At least half the seats to be filled by Indians, in the Viceroy"s Executive Council. -The provinces should be free as much as possible from the control of Central Governments in matters of finance and administration. -Separate electorates should be provided for all the communities until they ask for joint electorate. -Provision for the separation of judiciary from the executive. -In the case of minority political representation, a system of weightage to be adopted in which minorities were to be given more representation in the government than proportional to their share in the population. -Legislative Council term to be 5 years and the strength of the Central Legislative Council to be increased to 150. 4/5 of the Central and Legislative (Provincial) should be elected and 1/5 to be nominated. -The salaries of the Secretary of State for Indian Affairs not to be paid from Indian funds rather it has to be paid by the British government from their own funds. -The relations of the secretary with the Government of India should be similar to those of the colonial Secretary with the Governments of the Dominion. Critical Evaluation of Lucknow Pact 1916 -It was based on the perception of bringing together the educated Hindus and Muslims as separate political entities without secularization of their political views and most importantly it did not involve Hindu and Muslim masses. -As the Hindu-Muslim masses were not involved the Lucknow pact of 1916, therefore, left the way open to the future revival of communalism in India. -The unity between the two factions of the congress (i.e. Moderates & Extremists), and between Congress & the Muslim League during the Lucknow Session of Congress, aroused great political enthusiasm in the country. Lucknow pact paved the way for Hindu-Muslim cooperation in the Khilafat movement (Agitation of Indian Muslims to preserve the authority of Ottoman Sultan as a Caliph of Islam) and Non-Cooperation movement from 1920.

Critical Evaluation of Lucknow Pact 1916 -It was based on the perception of bringing together the educated Hindus and Muslims as separate political entities without secularization of their political views and most importantly it did not involve Hindu and Muslim masses. -As the Hindu-Muslim masses were not involved the Lucknow pact of 1916 therefore left the way open to the future revival of communalism in India. -The unity between the two factions of the congress (i.e. Moderates & Extremists), and between Congress & Muslim League during the Lucknow Session of Congress, aroused great political enthusiasm in the country. Lucknow pact paved the way for Hindu-Muslim cooperation in the Khilafat movement (Agitation of Indian Muslims to preserve the authority of Ottoman Sultan as a Caliph of Islam) and Non-Cooperation movement from 1920.

"Human beings should always be treated as "ends" in themselves and never as merely `means"." Discuss? (10 Marks/150 Words)
|
Approach: Introduce briefly by explaining in breif about Immanuel Kant and his perspective of the quote In the body explain the significance and meaning of the quote with example Conclude briefly Answer: Immanuel Kant’s theory of morality, the categorical imperative, states that it is immoral to use another person merely as a means to an end and that people must under all circumstances betreated as ends in themselves. This is in contrast to some interpretations of the utilitarian view, which allow for use of individuals as means to benefit the many. The philosopher immanuel kant once said “act so as to treat people always as ends in themselves,never as mere means”. The idea here is that other people are valuable not merely in so far as they can serve our purposes;they are also valuable in themselves. Kant said that rational human beings should be treated as an end in themselves and not as a means to something else. The fact that we are human has value in itself.If a person is an end-in-themself it means their inherent value doesn’t depend on anything else – it doesn’t depend on whether the person is enjoying their life, or making other people’s lives better. We exist, so we have value. This idea applies to us too. We shouldn’t treat ourselves as a means to our own ends; instead we should respect our inherent worth. This can be used as an argument against euthanasia, suicide and other behaviors that damage us. The signnificance of this lies in the fact that it gives highest consideration to a human life it provides a maxiim, which can be very useful in making ethical choices.stability and equality can be achieved in the society by following this principle.it is very important especially in the present society,which is dominated by technological innovations and neo-liberlism. Taking the example of slavery where human beings are treated as “means” for achieving the “ends” that is profit motive. Human intrinsic worth i.e. dignity is not respected and they are exploited for petty gains. This lead to inequality in society where one section of people exploiting other section for self-motive. Some people justify the slavery on the premises that it was based on contract between master and slave. But this argument does not hold ground because slave did not accept to slavery on free will and they might not be in their right state of mind thinking rationally and make a decision. In the present society,every human action has been commodified,every person used to charge for his services and those who cannot work like disabled and old age people are considered useless for the society.every human life isnot equal,life of a rich is more important than the poor,poor people are being eexploitation by the rich for their personal benefits.Discrimination,margininnalistion,exploitation and as a result ineaquality is increasing at a faster pace. Another simple example of exam time friendships where one befriends an intelligent student just to take her help to pass exam and then ditch her and go away with old friends after exams. This will hurt the dignity of student as she is just being used as a means to achieve the end. On the other hand they could have been friends for forever enjoying the company of each other and helping each other in times of need. In this case the intrinsic value of intelligent student was respected. Kant philosophy of human individuals as end in itself endorses the golden rule of “treating others as one’s self would wish to be treated”. As no one would wish to be used simply as a means, therefore one should not also use other human beings as means to achieve their ends. This philosophy can be of great help in resolving the ethical dilemmas where there is debate between relative importance of means and ends. If we really wnt to reserve these situations and humanity to prosper,we need to implement this phrase in’letter and sprit”in our life.
